Dimapur, Sep. 8 (EMN): In sharing their love for reading with children who need it the most, a small group of children gathered at PenThrill Publication House in Kohima on Sunday afternoon for a storytelling session marking International Literacy Day, which is on September 8, updates stated. The publication house issued a press release on Sunday to the media informing about the event.
The event was stated to be an initiative of Pratham Books, a leading non-profit organization, to bring story books to children across India.

In their eighth year running of ‘One Day, One Story,’ this year’s Pratham Books Champions had two titles to choose: ‘Gappu Can’t Dance’ written by Menaka Raman and illustrated by Krishna Chandan, and ‘The Weightlifting Princess’ written by Sowmya Rajendran and illustrated by Debasmita Dasgupta.
